    Lyrics
    Wanna be a pretty boy
    Wanna go on Solid Gold
    Wanna date a millionaire
    Wanna make people stare

    I wanna be on T.V.
    Want people to know me
    I want to be on T.V.
    Started out in 64
    Gonna be an omnivore
    I wanna make the people dance
    Gonna take off my pants

    On a magazine
    Gonna have some free cocaine
    Wanna wear my Calvin Kleins
    Then the world will be all mine
